The photos below were sent to me for inclusion in the Picture Gallery by Gavin Lee of Wellington, New Zealand. They were taken on one of the two week South Pacific cruises out of Australia and New Zealand. The Australis used to do the cruises several times a year. The pictures were mainly taken in Apia, Western Samoa and Pago Paga, American Samoa. The Captain really liked his sister hence he could go up to the bridge whenever he wanted to, Gavin believes the year was 1973.

Due to a huge volume of questions I am asked, for which often I do not have the information, I have decided to ask that only ex-crew actually write to me please. I am delighted with everyones contributions, and will occasionally update the Australis web site, using photos/stories etc sent to me. However I cannot answer any more questions. Thankyou for your sustained interest in the SS Australis Homepage. Please e-mail me on this link: Contact.
